A 17 year old gets hired at WalMart, the manager sets him up with an older and more experienced salesman to show him the ropes. Kid, just sit back and watch me, says the salesman. A customer walks in and the salesman greets him, Welcome to WalMart's sir, how can i help you? Well, i'd like a water hose for the garden No problem, how long 10 feet, 20 feet or 30 feet? 30 feet will be fine, says the customer How about a lawn mower, says the salesman A lawn mower? says the customer Well sure, says the salesman. Since your going to be watering your lawn, the grass will grow much faster and you"ll need to mow it more often. You're right, says the customer, give me a mower (The kid is looking at the salesman and thinking, WOW, will i ever be as good as him) (The older salesman looks at the kid and says "Son you ain't seen nothing yet.) The next customer walks and the salesman once again greets him, Welcome to WalMart's, how can i help you. I need a bag of fertilizer. No problem, how big 10 pounds, 20 pounds or 30 pounds. 30 pounds will be fine, says the customer. How about a lawnmower, says the salesman A lawn mower, says the customer Well sure, says the salesman. Since your going to be fertilizing your lawn, the grass will grow much faster and you"ll need to mow it more often. You're right, says the customer, give me a mower (The kid is standing there with his mouth wide open, he can't believe it) (The salesman says to the kid "see how easy it is, now it's your turn) The next customer walks and the kid greets him, Welcome to WalMart's, how can i help you. I need a box of sanitary napkins No problem, they come in boxes of 10, 20 or 30, which one would you like? A box of 30 will be fine, says the customer. How about a lawnmower, says the salesman A lawn mower, says the customer Well sure, says the salesman. Since your going not going to do very much over the week-end, you might as well mow the lawn.
